Right then.

Friday the 13th today, Valentine's Day tomorrow: seems like a perfect opportunity for anonymous comments!

Have at it, chaps, but keep it kind.

Yeah I used to keep a lot of them, but I try to be judicious, and I don't do a lot of rereading. I keep mostly the non-fiction that I can't fly through the way I can with fiction. I guess I spend a lot of time reading news online and some magazines, and other activities that take time I would have spent reading when I was younger and we weren't all online all the time... Also, reading + knitting is hard.

I try to get rid of as many as I can, and I did give away most of my doubles (different translations etc) to people who would enjoy them but I just can't help buying more books.

I have two hours of commuting a day and no other real hobbies so I have a fair bit of time for reading. Plus, it's the only thing I find really relaxing. :)

YES - the commuting. I actually wish I had a commute. I'd be incredibly well read AND have beautiful sweaters.

You can have my commute! I spend most of the journey there half asleep, drooling on my boyfriend's shoulder. I do manage to read on the way home, and sometimes in the morning but I'd much rather be in bed!
